One-shot voice conversion (VC), which performs conversion across arbitrary speakers with
only a single target-speaker utterance for reference, can be effectively achieved by speech …

This paper proposes a new procedure to detect Glottal Closure and Opening Instants (GCIs
and GOIs) directly from speech waveforms. The procedure is divided into two successive …

The residual neural networks (ResNet) demonstrate the impressive performance in
automatic speaker verification (ASV). They treat the time and frequency dimensions equally …

Dysarthric speech reconstruction (DSR) is a challenging task due to difficulties in repairing
unstable prosody and correcting imprecise articulation. Inspired by the success of sequence …

This paper focuses on using voice conversion (VC) to improve the speech intelligibility of
surgical patients who have had parts of their articulators removed. Due to the difficulty of …

We propose a fast speech analysis method which simultaneously performs high-resolution
voiced/unvoiced detection (VUD) and accurate estimation of glottal closure and glottal …

Speaking rate refers to the average number of phonemes within some unit time, while the
rhythmic patterns refer to duration distributions for realizations of different phonemes within …

Voice conversion is an emergent problem in voice and speech processing with increasing
commercial interest, due to applications such as Speech-to-Speech Translation (SST) and …

Recently, the research of any-to-any voice conversion (VC) has been developed rapidly.
However, they often suffer from unsatisfactory quality and require two stages for training, in …

Dysarthria is a motor speech disorder commonly associated with conditions such as
cerebral palsy, Parkinson's disease, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, and stroke. Individuals …
